1500HD Grille Guard

2003 1500HD

 

So i still have this 2003 1500HD I bought back when I was in highschool in 2016. I recently overhauled the entire suspension system and even threw on a 4” lift with the works. Got some replica wheels from the 2023+ trucks put on, good year tires. Upgraded the door speakers and head unit. Replaced the bulbs in the cluster, ac controls and light switches. Odo has 247k on it and engine and trans still going strong! Aside from the dings, dents and scratches I have the truck were I want it but I really want to put a ranch hand style grille guard on it dont ask me why I just need it. I know a guard from a 2500HD will sit too tall and from what I can tell the guards for the 1500’s dont have the same frame mounts. Anyone know who sells any for a 1500HD? Cant seem to find anything online or would i need to chop up a guard for a 2500HD? Thanks In advance.

Have you looked at Ranch Hand?  I know they made them for the last 1500 truck I had.

If you can weld, or know a welder this might be an option.  It's a full bumper replacement, not just a guard thought.

I have, they dont even have the option for the 1500HD. They do list the 2500LD but they dont offer a grille guard, only replacement rear bumper.

I see, I was wanting a guard only though just for the looks lol. I might look for a guard off a 2500HD on facebook marketplace and chop it up and see how it comes out.
